Wong's Gamble Pays Off
Level 3
: Blinds 300/700, 700 ante
Daniel Wong was all-in preflop for 77,600 from the small blind and Sachin Joshi was the player trying to bust him before the first break of the evening.
Daniel Wong: 7♠6♠
Sachin Joshi: A♦K♣
Wong was behind, but he did have live cards against the Big Slick of Joshi. A safe flop of Q♦10♠5♣ fell for Joshi, but the 8♥ turn gave Wong a straight draw. The 7♥ dropped on the river to give Wong the winner with a pair of sevens.
"I got you!" Wong exclaimed jubilantly as he pulled in the pot, much to the amusement of the rest of the table.
